Barbara: I swear I'm the only one here with a braincell.

The other batkids: All hail the keeper of the sacred braincell!

Ponyboy who’s not a Mamas boy.

Who’s not a Daddy’s boy.

Who’s Darry boy.

Who’s Soda’s boy.

Who’s Steve’s boy.

Who’s Two-bits boy.

Who was Dally’s boy.

Who was Johnny’s boy.

Who would always be Darry’s baby, ticking him awake, spinning him around after track, nearly crying.

Who was Soda’s Pony, the horse he always wanted, slipping him a Pepsi at the Dx, cuddling, crying with him, lying beside him

Who was Steve’s ‘Shithead’, joking around with him, running over to save him when he was jumped.

Who was Two-bit’s kiddo, making sure he’s not sick, putting a smile on his face, who used to tell his mama he didn’t need a baby brother ‘cus he already had one.

Who was Dally’s ‘man’, fighting in a way for him, hanging out with him, trying to keep himsafe.

Who was Johnny’s Pone, confiding in him, listening, always there for him.

And Ponyboy who with all of this still, doesn’t t fit in. Wasn’t quite right, would never be. He’s different.

Who hates that so much. Who couldn’t quite articulate how to fix it.

Who couldn’t fix it.

Who thought maybe killing hismelf would fix it, post book.

It didn’t work. Walking out bloodied right into the living room. Numb. Dull. He hadn’t expected Steve to care so much. He hated him.

He refused to leave him alone though. Pony didn’t even feel alive right now. He’s just repeated the same phrase to every question, “I’m ok.”

Even if it was a complete different question.

Why couldn’t he fuck off and go back to the Dx?? He wanted to be alone. Soda was waiting, it was only his lunch break.

He didn’t understand why he’d refused to leave him alone. Refused to even leave him alone in a room by himself. Much less the house.

Who pleaded he wasn’t a baby anymore.

my dad just lent me his copy of All Quiet On The Western Front- can’t wait to be absolutely devastated by the book

No tags too lazy

East End Boys, West End Girls

aka more Marcia x Two-Bit :))

ugh I needa draw them more lol. Tbh they’re lowkey what dragged me into this fandom months ago- I found the fandom because I liked them in the book and needed to see if anyone else did too and it was all downhill from there

also do y’all like the color palette here? I didn’t wanna do my usual grayscale stuff, but I wasn’t in the mood to color properly either, so I tried this ig??

(I’ll put the grayscale version under the cut tho anyhow if y’all prefer that)

Ok but, Ponyboy with freckles, all over his back and stomach and arms, and HATES THEM, and Sodapop, who adored them, they remind him of Mrs Curtis, not just that, just, the thinks their so awesome. Playing connect the dots with them on his finger.

I bring this up one, just cus’ why not, I’ve been thinking about it in general, but to another post I made a while ago that I will link here if I can find it, of Ponyboy OD on asprins, by accident.

The night at home, was spend after, Ponyboy exhausted, in so much pain, half asleep and drugged up, Soda tracing his freckles; talking about how much he hated them while Soda said how cool he thought they where.

“…They ain’t tuff.”

“They’re the tuffest thing in the world! Are ya’ kidding me honey! I wish I had ‘em!”

“…no they’re ugly…”

“Liarrrrrr……”
